Question

The length of a rectangular garden is 10 yards and its width is 10 feet. What is the perimeter of the garden in feet???? This was a hint. Are both dimensions given in the same unit??? :)

Answer 1

80 feet.

Explanation:

Given:

The length of a rectangular garden is 10 yards and its width is 10 feet.

To find:

Perimeter of the garden in feet ?

Solution:

Length = 10 yards

1 yard = 3 feet

10 yards = 3
`*` 10 = 30 feet

Breadth = 10 feet

Now, as we know:

`Perimeter\ of\ rectangle=2(length+breadth)`

`=2(30+10)\\ \\ =2(40)\\ \\ =80\ feet`

Hence, the perimeter of the garden is 80 feet.
